According to Lourdes athletic director Kevin Wopat, Tyriver left the program because of the time commitment. He wanted to spend more time with his young family.

Prior to replacing Ali Fett as head coach in 2014, Tyriver worked as an assistant with the Knights for seven years.

The Knights finished the 2018-19 season with a 14-9 record, ending with a 62-60 loss to Mishicot in a WIAA regional game.

"He's been a part of some incredible Lourdes basketball teams both as the head coach and as an assistant coach," Wopat said. "He's put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into that program."

Tyriver ended his career as head coach with a 98-25 overall record. He will continue teaching at Lourdes Academy and will be the assistant athletic director. He is also the school's golf coach.

"He's one of the guys every school loves to have. He's supportive of every athletic team and program regardless of whether he has an involvement in it or not," Wopat said.

Tyriver is the second Lourdes Academy coach to leave the program. Boys basketball coach Brad Clark announced he would be leaving in late April.

After a competitive search and four qualified applicants, Wopat selected Quinn Heintz as the new girls coach. Heintz was an assistant coach with the program for three years, and Wopat said Heintz had a good plan for moving the program forward.

"Quinn’s passion for basketball would rival Reed’s. They’re very similar. Quinn has a good rapport with the program," Wopat said. "I’m just excited to see him put his impact on the program just like Reed did."
